TKDA helped improve access to Saint Paul light rail and bus stations
In order to provide Saint Paul commuters, residents and visitors with a convenient link between the skyway and the Green Line light-rail station and nearby bus stations, the city needed a new stairway/elevator tower. TKDA performed the initial feasibility study and provided design and construction administration assistance for this major transit project.
TKDA helped overcome the challenges of the heavily used pedestrian intersection and multi-modal stop along 5th Street. The $1.7M project which included an $800,000 federal grant, included new stairs and an elevator to improve accessibility for all transit users in the area.
